Lover's Key is probably one of our favortite beaches in the area. There is a small fee to enter the park. There are several parking lots, concession stands (one near the parking lot and one on the beach), bike rentals, kayak and canoe rentals, chair rentals, hiking paths, and even a tram to take you to the beach. The tram... more

This is still one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever been too. We used to go quite often to fly stunt kites because you need room with no people to fly them. They have roped off most of the area for bird nesting and oats so the beach is small and there is no longer room to fly... more

My husband and I were engaged on the secluded, white sandy beach at Lover's Key. Breathtaking and romantic! What a paradise! more

Just got back from the best day at Lovers Key. We rented a Canoe and spent 4 beautiful, romantic hours exploring the back bay and mangroves around the islands (for only $30!!!). The rental staff were so helpful and friendly, even showing us on a map the best routes to spot manatees and dolphins, before we set off. We took... more

I have been to Lover's Key beach several times and really have enjoyed it!!!!You can Kayak, hike trails, bike, picnic etc. To get the actual beach you can take a shuttle or walk. I love to shell and have had good luck there. The last time I went was at low tide and found over 24 sand dollars. I would... more

Visited the park in June. It is truly a little slice of heaven. A convenient tram takes you from the parking lot directly to the beach if you don't want to walk. The beach is ungroomed and very natural. There are bicycles to rent and ride on trails. There are also canoes to rent for paddling down secluded, shaded streams.... more

If you're idea of a great time is to lug all your beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, etc. on 2 separate trams, then go for it. When we FINALLy got to the beach, there was a 10-15 feet wide strip of sand. Maybe if you walked further down the coast, you might have seen a nicer stretch of beach but after... more

Lovers' Key truly is a lover's paradise. The park over the years has continually made improvements to the area without jeopardizing the landscape and habitat. I haven't been in nearly two years, but always find it a lovely place to spend a relaxing beach day in the plentiful sun and shade. Dolphins abound offshore near the end of the key... more
